常斐然来到了Sophia家。
Sophia开门一看是他,稍有吃惊。
Sophia:“How do you find this place?(你怎么找到这儿的?) ”
常斐然:“Pukia showed me.(Pukia带我来过。)”
Sophia:“She here?(她在这儿?)”
常斐然:“Nope.(没。)”
他不由分说地进了门
房子里飘着一股淡去的刺鼻香气。常斐然很惊讶这么有钱的人竟然会使用这种类似于清洁剂气味的劣质香氛,不过也有可能就是她自己家产品,自产自销可还行。
房子里有些阴暗,静悄悄的。
常斐然:“Where's Lieward?(Lieward呢?)”
他以为以Lieward的家庭地位一定是他来开门。
Sophia:“He's not home.(他不在家。)”
Apparently.(很明显。).常斐然心想。不过随便吧,他现在顾不上他。
他们在大厅沙发坐下。
Sophia:“To what do I owe the honor?(怎么今天大驾光临?)”
常斐然:“There's a lot going on in my mind, and I can't talk to anyone about it.(最近我总是在想一些事情,但是我又不能对任何人倾诉。)”
Sophia:“Not even Pukia?(连Pukia也不能?)”
常斐然:“It's about her.(就是关于她的事。)”
Sophia:“Oh?(哦?)”
常斐然:“Do you realize how things have taken a downturn here since the day she talked to the profs?(你有没有觉得自从那天她和教授谈过之后这里的事情就开始急转直下了?)”
Sophia:“You mean the day she snuck you out and you followed her to the Moon Palace afterwards?(你说她偷偷把你带出去然后你又偷偷跟踪她到月宫那天吗?)”
常斐然:“Exactly. It's just one thing after another since then.(没错。后来事情就是一件接着一件。)”
Sophia:“What are you trying to say?(你什么意思?)”
常斐然:“We have a snitch.(我们中有内鬼。)”
Sophia:“Who, you?(谁?你吗?)”
常斐然:“Pukia. ”
Sophia从鼻子里哼出一声笑,然后仰靠进沙发背垫上。
Sophia:“I hate her for many things. But one thing I know she'd never do is snitch. What I'm curious about is why you'd come to me and literally admit to my face that you're it.(我不喜欢她,但是有一点我很清楚,她不会告密。我比较好奇的是你为什么会跑到我面前,然后基本上承认你才是。)”
常斐然:“I'm just the scapegoat doing the dirty work for her.(我只是替罪羊,替她做脏活而已。)”
Sophia眯着眼、挑着眉上下打量了他一番。
Sophia:“How old do you think I am?(你觉得我多大?)”
常斐然:“Ahh...(呃...)”
Sophia:“OK, don't answer that. I don't want to hear it. But older than you definitely.(行,别回答了,我不想听你的答案。但是至少比你活得久。)”
常斐然:“That I'm not sure.(我不确定。)”
Sophia:“Pfft. Don't. My point is, I'm not gonna be played for a fool by a kid like you. If you are in trouble with her, say, maybe you are called out as a snitch, deal with it. I’m not gonna be used as a pawn.(噗,别。我是说,我是不会被你这种幼稚的把戏糊弄地团团转的。如果你现在有了麻烦,比如说Pukia知道了你就是那个内鬼,那就认命吧。我不会被你当枪使的。)”
常斐然装作无奈地点点头起身。
